Ah, OK. I was concerned having the outlets semi-submersed would create bubbles. Guess I'll just have to wait and see once I add salt. It's not like I will have huge flow as it's just an Eheim 1262 with about 5-1/2' head. If it was a Mag 9 it would be just over 700gph, according to the RC head loss calculator.

The skimmer is in the first section and behind a bubble trap. The first baffle is 16-3/4" tall and the last is 16-1/4"
Thanks Paddy
